Yes they are lol

lmao yes most furries are gay. it’s a queer subculture. it’s like asking hmmm are most leather daddies gay?

I was just saying there are a lot of Japanese/German-made stationary options because they use stationary. It’s kind of a bummer because you have to pay extra for them to be imported, and they might not be in English or show important American dates. I wish there were more high quality English-language options available. Even the paper itself is usually shit 😩

Totally understandable that as a tech worker you would prefer digital note-taking tools!

And just as an aside, sometimes I think engineers focus too much on “efficiency”. There are a ton of things that can be optimized for! Maybe having a beautiful office layout diagram makes the experience of looking at and working with the diagram more enjoyable, more memorable, maybe it instills pride in the office workers.

omg is dyspraxia the reason there’s such an internet boner for hating cursive??? I never thought about that. It always seemed weird to me because it was such a short and forgettable part of my educational experience, but I could understand being upset about it if it was painful or difficult to learn and other people seemed to learn more easily.

you’re projecting a lot here? but go off

I don’t really have infinite money for new/multiple iPads lol, neither has any habitat restoration job I’ve worked in.

I don’t need to keep large documents on hand in my notes binder. I do sometimes print them and file them in an organized filing cabinet though. It’s super fast to find whatever I’m looking for, add post-its, notes, whatever I want to them. And I can read them outside without glare.

I have had my phones overheat in sunlight regularly, just listening to podcasts. Not even that hot, like coastal California sunlight. Multiple devices, over years, it’s just something I’ve accepted that can happen when you’re working outdoors.

I already described all the advantages of paper notes. They don’t break. You don’t need to carry extra batteries around. No glare. I would not take an iPad into thick brush on a hot day, I wouldn’t even be able to see the damn screen half the time. But you do you!

Yeah, paper note-taking does mean scanning right away when you’re back in the office. But the reality of field work is that you might lose the data if you took them on a tablet, too. I’ve worked jobs where there was no service until we get into the office, so the data just lives on the device until it is uploaded.

I am using Obsidian for a particular project, I’m using it to organize a history research project I’m working on! I think it’s a cool tool, I would just go crazy if I had everything organized on my computer. I end up hyperfocusing more on the organizing system itself, or get distracted on the computer/phone… and the physical notes I can make cute and aesthetic much more easily which makes me feel warmly about my to-dos. I tried to do a digital PDF notebook with hyperlinks and everything, but I just felt like I was spending too much time fiddling around with on my note-taking and organization.

Paper stationary is a lot more popular in Germany and Japan, oddly enough. A lot of jetpens products come from those countries … the most sought after notebooks are Japanese and Germans have great pens.

I disagree with your “objective” opinion lol. The iPad you have to keep charged, can break, they overheat in sunlight especially when you put an OtterBox on them, they might get laggy with big documents. And with paper you can write with any pen/highlighter you like, you can take it anywhere. Tablets are not always the best tool.

I saw it on TikTok…

You’re overestimating the technical competency of people looking to twitch streams to jack off. If they could do all that, they’d already be on porn sites.

lmao gatekeeping? calm down 😂

I’m just saying there’s a reason titty streamers are on a platform that is not for porn. There’s an audience of people who don’t use VPNs and can’t access porn, and it’s huge. So people will probably still try to access that audience on a safe for work only twitch like you’re suggesting.

You can totally be disorganized on a computer too. My paper notes are organized in a binder by context.

Idk sounds like the guy just has untreated ADHD or something. Life’s too short to be mad at someone for being kinda bad at their job. You’re all just workers together.

He is wrong bc he’s saying a tablet would survive the elements better

But the people from countries where porn is banned are a huge source of revenue for the sexual streamers, that’s the point of doing it on twitch

Then you still have the problems of moderation and trying to make sure all the porn is on one website

they won’t do this because if they actually allow porn, they’d be banned entirely from some countries

Nah it’s because porn is literally illegal in a lot of countries, so sexy Twitch streams are trying to fill that niche.

Why wouldn’t a titty streamer be on Lemmy?? Someone who makes a living online, on the most popular alternative to one of the most popular websites ever?

You don’t really seem to like him very much haha
